Eren the crew seemed powerless so stricken were they with the awful Ruddenness of the disaster. Meanwhile, the boat rapidly went to pieces, dashed against the rooks. The criw aU of whom except the waiters, hadcmng to the rigging, managed during the lull m the storm to pkce themselves in a lifeboat. They cut the fastenings, aud in an instant a wave swept them from the ill-fated wreck. Amid the roar of the wind and the dashing of the waves the boat was borne onward. Two of the passengers had managed to place themselves in the boat before it was cut away from the wreck. Any efforts that had been made to launch the beats during the early confusion and horror had failed. Meantime the lifeboat and its occupants had a terrible experience on the lake. All who could bound themselver to the boat, while the remainder held on ;to the sides, expecting every moment 'to meet their death by drowning or from exposure and cold. Once the boat was turned over with the waves, and one of the crew was washed away, but the frail craft righted itself and was swept on incomparative darkness. After half an hour the boat suddenly struck some rocks. The inmates feared all was over with them, when the craft capsized, but to their sur- prise when thrown out the water was only a foot deep, and they discovered that they were on laud. After re- maining there an hour or more ex- posed to the elements the storm abated and the sky clouded. They then discovered that they were on Isle Rnyal, and that the vessel had been vrecked about one mile from shore on great boulders near the channel. It was about ten o'clock in the morning and the crew remained there until late in the evening, when the Athabasca came along and picked them up. tiL,-] ""'" "lai as a paddle N,4!"'°^iiDgtheboatto the iiinw!i,*^® survivors were /P'^y the Athabaska.
